I assume from your last reply that you have not gotten your unit working yet. I DO have the unit working standalone, and have been able to getting some readings from Mission Planner. However, I am still having some issues.
"Clay,
I have been using a QIDI Tech printer that has a heated platform. The platform has thick layer of blue color polymer material. Everything seems to stick to it. As a matter of fact, most often we have to put some real craftiness and elbow…"
"Hobbyking sells a thrust stand. I bought one, and it is quite handy, and inexpensive. With a thrust stand you could baseline test the readily available props (unless mfg data is available), and then test your 3D printed props against that data. …"
I have some experience with 3-D printing propellers (for ducted fans). I have not been successful yet, but I have not been very active with it lately. Right off the bat, you are going to need to find a suitable plastic material. The…"

Your post is not easy to follow, but I understand that you had some mixed results with the NEO M8N you bought from GoodLuckSell and ucenter. I want to reply to your post because we also have two NEO M8N units from GoodLuckSell.
We have no…"
"Daniel,
I'd say they were correct. The IRIS+ ThrOut is typically over 50% throttle when in it's most basic configuration; short legs, not gimbal. When the longer legs, gimbal and camera are added, the ThOut increases proportionally. Additionally…"
You want to check that the LED in leg is still working before you put it all together again. When an arm is broken it can stress the LED cable. If it needs replacing, you want to do that when you are replacing the arm. It definitely…"
"Gregg,
Sounds like you will probably have to make test flight after taking 3DR's recommendations. The things I noticed may not be related the mishaps, but let me point it out.
On both flights, the battery voltage looks like a 4S-type battery. If…"
"Gregg,
I need an account of what you observed on each flight. Are the files you sent for one or two IRISes? What is the present configuration of the IRIS or IRISes. There are a couple of parameters in your files that are problematic, but I need…"
